William Allen White
Liberty is the only thing you cannot have unless you are willing to give it to others.
William Allen White
Reason has never failed men. Only force and repression have made the wrecks in the world.
William Allen White
Dip your pen into your arteries and write.
William Allen White
Whenever a free man is in chains we are threatened also. Whoever is fighting for liberty is defending America.

William Allen White
In education, we are striving not to teach youth to make a living, but to make a life.
William Allen White
We say that money talks, but it speaks a broken, poverty-stricken language. Hearts talk better, clearer, and with wider intelligence.
William Allen White
Democracy is an experiment, and the right of the majority to rule is no more inherent than the right of the minority to rule and unless the majority represents sane, righteous, unselfish public sentiment, it has no inherent right.
William Allen White
You can have no wise laws nor free enforcement of wise laws unless there is free expression of the wisdom of the people -- and, alas, their folly with it. But if there is freedom, folly will die of its own poison, and the wisdom will survive.
William Allen White
I fear vastly more a futile, incompetent old age than I do any form of death.
William Allen White
Youth should be radical. Youth should demand change in the world. Youth should not accept the old order if the world is to move on.
William Allen White
Whoever tramples on the plea for justice temperately made in the name of peace only outrages peace and kills something fine in the heart of man which God put there when we got our manhood.
William Allen White
Every one expects to go further than his father went every one expects to be better than he was born and every generation has one big impulse in its heart - to exceed all the other generations of the past in all the things that make life worth living.
William Allen White
The facts fairly and honestly presented truth will take care of itself.
William Allen White
I have never been bored an hour in my life. I get up every morning wondering what new strange glamorous thing is going to happen and it happens at fairly regular intervals.
William Allen White
You say that freedom of utterance is not for time of stress, and I reply with the sad truth that only in time of stress is freedom of utterance in danger? Only when free utterance is suppressed is it needed, and when it is needed it is most vital to justice.
William Allen White
Any appeasement of tyranny is treason.
